Re: Dragon rescue success

While rare, a gecko can drop his tail if he starts falling from the top of his enclosure and his tail finds purchase on something towards the end of the fall. Some geckos just let go with a tug, others will bark and attempt to bite anything that grabs their tail.

But you're right, he won't really miss it. He should become more prone to hopping, though. It is somewhat amusing, geckos that used to walk everywhere turn into little bunnies when they lose their tail.

Re: Dragon rescue success

my dtr rescued one from petco who had lost his tail. it's been a year now and it hasn't grown back. we love him anyway and named him Nubby. With everything he does, I don't think he even misses it.
